The process of registration is simple but considering security every mail attachment from NSDL comes with password protection. This will require deductor to keep track of TAN registration number till it is activated. The process of placing request for consolidated statement , again is little complex for the sake of security. We placed one request and we were asked two questions . One was to fill up PAN and deductee amount in respect of 5 deductees. Second question was to fill up Challan Sr No , date and amount.
